Hackinformer Your device needs to transform, we are here to inform
Most of you know that I love those little raspberry pi’s as there are so many things you can do with them from computer robotics to simple game emulation and more. Today I came across the pi-topCEED on IndieGoGo and I think it’s a great idea. Their first product was the pi-top: a raspberry pi based laptop. It was very successful so they took their pi-top laptop and turned it into a slimmer form factor and with a smaller price tag.
The idea behind the pi-topCEED is a device that anyone can use to learn, play and create by building hardware and writing software.
pi-topCEED is the world’s most affordable way to use and learn with the Raspberry Pi. It comes ready to plug and play and includes a Raspberry Pi 2 so you can get going straight away, all for just $99!
pi-topCEED is a modular desktop. This means, just like pi-top, when a new Raspberry Pi device gets released you can take your old Rpi out and insert the new one and just like that, you have a brand new desktop!
pi-topCEED Key Features:
It is the perfect product to learn about software, hardware and becoming a real maker. pi-topCEED is shipped with a revolutionary learning platform CEEDuniverse to expand your computer science and maker knowledge.

Dear Madam and Sir,
Can you show me the “Price” for the “pi-topCEED a $99 Raspberry pi desktop computer” without the Raspberry Pi ? I also have this “Raspberry Pi “B”.
